Will Aquarius try to avoid hurting people?

After hearing the Archer Director's words, Li Ang couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then remembered the past of encountering Aquarius in the Dead Realm.

If the Archer Director's inference is correct, then the reason why Aquarius didn't kill himself at that time, besides wanting to arrange a way out for his "daughter" Nicole, might also have this aspect of the reason.

"In short, you don't need to worry about the safety of the girl he disguised as."

After glancing at Li Ang who was lost in thought, the Archer Director summarized:

"Based on my understanding of Aquarius, he himself has no interest in unnecessary killing, and coupled with the need to avoid conflict with the will of the Watchtower, he will definitely not really kill. That girl was probably knocked out by him and thrown somewhere.

And you cleaners who came to participate in the assessment have all eaten the sub-strains of 【Dream-Play Color Fungus】. Once your body in reality is fatally attacked, you will wake up, so it doesn't matter if you can't find her whereabouts. After you go back, just blow her head up, and you can wake her up."

"..."

This method is really... simple and rude enough...

"Oh, by the way."

When saying this, the Archer Director suddenly became serious, and then asked:

"What about the other cleaners who came to participate in the assessment? Why are you the only one left? Where did they go? Also, how is Pisces now? And what's going on with that newborn Nightmare King?"

"They are all safe. Lord Pisces was ambushed, and his soul has been switched to Mimi in advance, but he hasn't suffered any other harm..."

After briefly explaining the current situation, Li Ang proposed:

"Lord Archer, when Lord Pisces was attacked before, Director Aquarius didn't really leave. I'm worried that he will play this kind of trick again. Let's find Lord Pisces first, and I'll explain it to you on the way!"

"Makes sense, but you don't have to worry too much."

After listening to Li Ang's proposal, the Archer Director first nodded, then picked up the Goddess of Dream Entertainment who was crying with a sad face at his feet, forcibly stuffed her back into the conch, and then said proudly:

"Although Aquarius has many means, his level of head-on combat is poor, only slightly stronger than Pisces, who has soul problems. He is not my opponent at all. If it weren't for the fact that it was too sudden before, he wouldn't even have had the chance to ambush this fake body of mine."

"..."

Okay, okay, you are the most awesome, okay?

Facing the Archer Director's boasting, the corners of Li Ang's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly. Although he knew that the Archer Director should be telling the truth, the impression of him being dragged down that he left on Li Ang after being backstabbed by Aquarius as soon as he arrived was too deep.

Especially later, when he roared with great momentum, looking like he was going to tear Aquarius alive, but immediately fell to the ground and became a fountain commander, which lingered in Li Ang's heart. Watching him suddenly start to boast, it was really hard to hold back...

This kid... seems to be thinking about some very impolite things...

Looking at Li Ang's rather strange expression, the Archer Director's thick eyebrows couldn't help but jump slightly, then he snorted coldly:

"Aquarius has many strange things in his hands, but the 【Anomalous Creation】 of the Aquarius lineage can only be used to manufacture anomalous objects, while the secret arts of my Archer lineage are 【Anomalous Enhancement】 that can be used in battle!

Even if it's just an ordinary anomalous object, after being applied with my secret arts, it can exert unimaginable effects. For example, the 【Void-Eating Spider】 that almost ate Aquarius empty just now was just a... um? What's the noise?!"

"Click."

Accompanied by a crisp sound of the machine returning to its position, a pocket watch mark that was extremely familiar to both of them quietly appeared on the Archer Director's butt. In the shocked expression of Li Ang and the other, the golden mark suddenly appeared and then suddenly disappeared.

And after the golden mark disappeared, the Archer Director was slightly dazed, and then stood in place like he had lost his soul and didn't move anymore.

(╯°□°)

"?!!!"

"..." "Lord Archer?!"

"..."

"What's wrong with you? Say something!"

"..."

Just when Li Ang couldn't get a response and had to grit his teeth and put on the 【Hand of Screaming】, preparing to wake him up forcibly, the Archer Director finally recovered from his daze and looked at Li Ang blankly:

"I'm gone..."

"Ah?"

"My body is gone! I was killed by Aquarius just now!"

What did you say?!!!

Shocked by the Archer Director's words, Li Ang said with disbelief:

"He didn't run away just now... could it be that he cut away your time, and then relied on that cut-away time to find the location of your main body?"

"Should be..."

The Archer Director nodded, his expression explaining extremely stiffly:

"He probably read my past with the 【Ritual Pocket Watch】, and finally cut off the time when my main body and fake body were in contact, arrived at the location where I should have been at that time, found the secret cellar where I hid my main body, and then directly killed my main body..."

"..."

You... you didn't look down on Aquarius's combat ability just now, but you were calculated clearly by him!

Looking at the Archer Director who had lost his main body in front of him, Li Ang didn't know what to say for a while, and could only comfort him speechlessly:

"It's okay, the body can be repaired. As long as your soul is still there, then..."

"He is using the remains of my body to curse my soul repeatedly."

"..."

"This time it's really big trouble..."

No longer having the confident look from before, the Archer Director with an extremely ugly face muttered:

"Mimi has no combat ability at all, and it will take more than a month to switch back. As for me... ordinary materials can't accommodate my soul at all. It will take at least half a year to repair the body, not to mention that my soul is still being cursed constantly, and I don't dare to leave this body at will.

But Joan has already completed the preliminary preparations, and it will definitely be time to ascend the palace in less than half a month. There is no room for further changes. This... this..."

Isn't this completely screwed?

After completing the conclusion for the Archer Director in his heart, thinking of the extremely troublesome situation now, Li Ang couldn't hold back either.

At the moment, three directors are young and disabled, the remaining Lord Taurus is about to ascend the palace and cannot act, and the Slaughter King Society is eyeing them, ready to assassinate the royal family at any time. Director Zodiac must guard their respective jurisdictions, and the directors of non-Zodiac branches are not level enough... How the hell do we fight this?

"What about the other cleaners who participated in the assessment?"

After being silent for a while, the Archer Director's emotions finally stabilized a little, and then he instructed with an ugly face:

"I will send you back first. After you go back, you must immediately notify the directors of your respective branches to come to the General Bureau for a meeting immediately!"

"Ah, okay!"

Li Ang nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, and then reached out to hook his own throat.

"Wait a moment, I'll spit them out right away!"

"?!!!"
